Default Making a rearstand

I am going to be making a rear stand for my F4i. Welding is not a problem and will prolly get it powdercoated by a buddy. Looking for advice or pics if anyone has built one before. Ive seen them built but cant seem to find pics now that i need them. Does it have to have wheels? Where is the best place to lift on the swingarm of these f4i's? Middle, front, back??? I dont have spools. Any tips or tricks to help me out?
Thanks in advance.

BTW...i dont want to buy one bc i prefer the satisfaction of making stuff like this so dont suggest that.

It doesn't need wheels, but if you're going to spend the time already and your savy enough why not make a set of stands that acts as a dolly as well, that'd be nice to have don't you think. I would just put spools on your swingarm.

I thought F4i's can't have spools?
